The VegTrug Frame & Greenhouse Cover creates a protected microclimate for plants in your Compact VegTrug.
You can start planting earlier in spring and extend the growing season later into fall for an even bigger and better harvest. The
easy-to-install, 21"-high steel frame installs in minutes with convenient push-fit connectors, and the reinforced polyethylene
greenhouse cover has heavy-duty stitching and zippers. The cover slips snugly over the frame and attaches with strong
VELCRO® brand tabs. Zips open for ventilation and easy access to crops.

Note: The following covers are designed specifically for use with the frame from the Compact VegTrug Frame & Greenhouse Cover set.

Once the weather warms up, you can replace the greenhouse cover with the VegTrug Insect Cover, sold
separately. The polyethylene micro-mesh cover protects plants from insects, birds, harsh winds and hungry deer. To install,
simply remove the greenhouse cover from the frame, and then install the insect cover in its place. Attaches with strong
VELCRO® brand tabs. Zips open for ventilation and easy access to crops.

Hot summer sun can burn tender seedlings and make cool-season crops like lettuce turn bitter. The UV-stabilized polyethylene Compact VegTrug Shade Cover, sold separately, cuts summer sun by 50%. It covers the top of the Compact VegTrug and extends 10" down the sides. This leaves the lower sides open so air can circulate freely around plants. To install, simply remove the greenhouse cover from the frame, and then install the shade cover in its place, securing it with the VELCRO® brand tabs.

For extra frost protection, use the Compact VegTrug Frost Cover, sold separately. Made from nonwoven
polypropylene, it protects plants from cold temperatures, wind and frost, allowing you to extend the growing season earlier in
spring and later into fall. To install, simply remove the greenhouse cover from the frame, and then install the frost cover in its
place. Attaches with strong VELCRO® brand tabs. Zippers allow easy access to plants.

I started my VegTrug garden without the frame & greenhouse cover, and things were slow growing. Added the frame and greenhouse cover and I am getting harvested green and herbs every three to four days.

I purchased a VegTrug w/covers two years again and the quality was Great! Lasted through the wind and high temps of an AZ summer. The replacement liner and cover were not of the quality purchased originally. The liner is thin and flimsy and the insect cover was so poorly stitched at the side seam that it didn't last one day after installation.

Here in North Texas, we get few freezes after the middle of February, so here is a great urge to plant early. However, we do get several frosts through the first of April. This cover allows me to plant earlier, yet protect against the later frosts or even a light freeze.

My veggies had been limping along in the cooler weather, and then we bought the greenhouse cover and frame. What a difference this made in just one week. I am duly impressed; so much so that I am going to buy another for my other VegTrug.
